Asbestos help in Bisham
For landlords, agents and businesses
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Artex removal for Bisham properties
Covering an intact coating is one option, but the asbestos is still there and should be recorded for future work. Whether it’s coatings damaged by leaks and loft conversions and extensions, we cover coated plasterboard, swirl patterns and stipple finishes.
In places like Bisham, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes. Nothing is added to the job that you do not need.

What we deal with in Bisham
Coatings get damaged by water leaks, cracks and DIY, so they may start to flake.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Coatings damaged by DIY
- Ceilings before plastering
- Damaged or cracked coatings
- Ceilings due for rewiring or new downlights
For a school such as Bisham Church of England Academy, the duty holder’s records should show any coatings, before decorators start.

Your questions about Artex removal in Bisham
Do you cover Bisham from London?
We cover Bisham, about 30 miles from central London.
Is asbestos common in Bisham homes?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Bisham may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: skips and household bins cannot take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Do you work in flats?
We do. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
How can I get a price?
Just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Prices and what affects them
Every quote reflects:
- Waste quantity and disposal
- The size of the job
- What the material is and its state
- Parking and access charges
Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
Sending photos
To help us quote quickly, send:
- Approximate dimensions
- Labels, if any
- The parking area
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
Photos from a safe distance help: do not touch the material, just send them through our quote form.

What happens next
If other rooms have textured coatings, record whether they’ve been tested, so future work is planned properly.
A few practical points:
- Each different coating needs testing
- Empty the rooms in advance
- Keep pets out of the work area
- Photos help us quote
What to avoid
Don’t try DIY removal products on untested coatings.
Do not sand, scrape dry or wire-brush a textured coating before it’s been tested.
Limits to be aware of
It’s worth knowing what Artex removal does and doesn’t cover:
- We need the room cleared
- We test before removal, because a clear result means ordinary methods can be used
